What is a psychic? You may ask. They seem to be on TV, and in films and books, but what actually makes someone psychic. In this day and age, anyone can set themselves up as a psychic. Magazines and websites are full of people who profess to be able to connect with people who have died or to be able to do Tarot card readings, about the past, present or future.

Many have no formal qualifications, unlike being a counsellor, there are no proper qualifications needed to become a psychic. Yet a psychic reading can more often than not become a counselling session. Topics discussed in either can range from relationship problems to dealing with the loss of a loved one.
